Local Knowledge

Toilets in Lincoln Park Homes

In older buildings, the toilet often sits on an old flange over someone else's ceiling.

Leaks Into the Unit Below

A failed wax seal can stain the ceiling downstairs.

Cast Iron Flanges

Old flanges corrode, so the toilet won't stay tight.

Garden Unit Toilets

Some drain to an ejector pump.

Upper Floors

Toilet Leaks in Upper-Floor Units

When a toilet leaks on an upper floor, the first sign is usually a stain on the neighbor's ceiling. A failed wax ring, a cracked tank or a loose supply connection can all cause it. We check each one, reset the toilet on a new seal and test it. If the flange is damaged, we repair it so the toilet stays tight. It's a quick fix that prevents a much bigger one.

Pricing

What Affects the Price of Toilet Work

Small repairs are quick. Resetting a toilet or replacing a corroded flange takes longer. Carrying a new toilet up several flights adds a little time. We check and quote a flat price.
